Fawn Hall to Be Co-Host of TV Special
Fawn Hall, who made her television debut testifying about former boss Oliver L. North before a Senate committee investigating the Iran-Contra affair, will be co-host of a network special that producers hope is an upscale version of “The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.”
Hall was chosen “because she is very spontaneous and has a presence that is indicative she can handle this kind of assignment with zest and energy,” Gary Pudney, a ABC television vice president for specials, said Friday.
“M-W Men and Women,” based on M and W magazines, will be broadcast the first week in June. Pudney said it is to combine “Entertainment Tonight,” “60 Minutes” and an upscale version of the show that displays the opulent life styles of the wealthy.
Other co-hosts are Ron Reagan Jr., the President’s son; actress Jane Seymour, and Danny Sullivan, an Indianapolis 500 winner.
Hall has already taped her segment for the hourlong show--an interview with a British heiress who gave it all up to live with her husband, a Masai warrior, outside Nairobi, Kenya.
